A North Carolina AM Recovers After Flooding Drowned Its Operations? RW rip...

I know... We've all heard stories like this, but still a neat read upon utilizing an old LPB, Inc., AM Carrier-Current transmitter.  https://www.radioworld.com/news-and-business/a-north-carolina-am-recovers-after-flooding-drowned-its-operations    BTW, I know that we've also heard stories on how stations get back on-air, the not-so legal way. Case in point, when a certain college station, in the late 1990's, lost the use of their old FM transmitter, they bought one from Free Radio Berkeley. (I won't mention the call letters and location of this station.) Anyway, that got them back on-air, with way less coverage, for months. I believe the power was like 20W, or less, and it was neat to do a drive-around to see how far that went. Unfortunately, it was on a crowded FREQ of 89.7FM, where, within 100 miles, there were at least four 89.7FM's licensed for that FREQ. (Yeah, what was the FCC thinking there?)
